JoCo Master Recycler class offered
Because of sponsorship
of the Solid Waste Agency
and the support of local waste
haulers, Josephine County is
now able to offer a 2010
Master Recycler Course.
These courses already
exist statewide, and have
been extremely successful in
educating citizen volunteers
and providing service in their
communities. Josephine
County’s program has been
modeled after the Portland
and Jackson County pro-
grams thanks to their gener-
ous support.
This course is open to the
Josephine County community
and includes 30 hours of lec-
ture sessions from local ex-
perts on topics relating to
recycling and waste preven-
tion as well as two Saturday
field trips. Sample topics:
“Greening” your busi-
ness, worms and organic
waste, the culture of con-
sumption, and where our
trash and recycling goes after
it leaves the curb. Lecturers
include representatives from
the Dept. of Environmental
Quality’s Waste Division,
local waste haulers, and local
organizations such as the Jo-
sephine County Food Bank
and Goodwill Enterprise.
Field trips will be led to
Dry Creek Landfill, SPARC
Enterprises, the Grants Pass
Waste Water Treatment Plant
and JO-GRO facility, as well
as Cascade Metal Recycling.
Participants are required
to complete 30 service hours
in activities which reduce our
waste stream or educate oth-
ers about doing so. Service
hours must be completed in
Josephine County and can
include assisting with recy-
cling services or providing an
informational table at events,
giving presentations to
schools and businesses, and
other creative projects volun-
teers come up with them-
selves.
Many volunteer opportu-
nities will be organized by the
Master Recycler Coordinator,
but there is freedom (within
the guidelines) for partici-
pants in where to dedicate
their hours. These service
hours are also an excellent
opportunity for Master Recy-
clers to build their own com-
munity by working together.
The cost of the course is
$50 for each participant to
cover the costs of printing a
customized Josephine County
recycling manual (100+
pages), refreshments, and
various class supplies.
Applications are avail-
able online at learn.roguecc.
edu/recycle/masterrecycler or
by e-mail: bbeckstead@
roguecc.edu. Phone Britta
Beckstead, Master Recycler
coordinator at 541-956-7185
for more information.
Depending on the num-
ber of applications, partici-
pants may be selected on a
basis of their enthusiasm and
contributing skills. There will
be a maximum of 40 class
participants. Applications are
due by Feb. 15. Participants
will be notified by Feb. 22 of
their acceptance.
To know that even one life has breathed easier because you have lived,
that is to have succeeded.

LEGAL NOTICE
ENDANGERED SPECIES ACT
PROPOSED DESIGNATION OF CRITICAL HABITAT AND ECONOMIC ANALYSIS FOR
COOK’S DESERT PARSLEY AND LARGE-FLOWERED WOOLLY MEADOWFOAM
AND A PUBLIC HEARING ON THE PROPOSAL
U.S. FISH AND WILDLIFE SERVICE
On January 12, 2010, the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service published a notice in the Federal Register announcing
the reopening of the comment period on the proposed designation of critical habitat for Cook’s desert parsley
and large-flowered woolly meadowfoam and the availability of a draft economic analysis. This announcement
opened a 30-day public comment period which ends at close-of-business February 11, 2010.
A PUBLIC INFORMATIONAL MEETING will be held Tuesday, February 2, 2010, from 3:30 p.m. to 5:00
p.m., at the Jackson County Library Services Medford Library Branch Conference Room, 205 South Central
Avenue, Medford, OR. A presentation on the proposal will be given at 4:00 p.m. Biologists will be available to
provide information and answer questions.
ORAL TESTIMONY WILL BE ACCEPTED AT A PUBLIC HEARING between 5:30 p.m. and 7:30 p.m.,
at the same location and date as the informational meeting (above). Oral comments may be limited in length if
the number of participants is large.
BACKGROUND: Cook’s desert parsley and large-flowered woolly meadowfoam were listed as endangered in
2000. On July 28, 2009, the USFWS proposed to designate critical habitat. The Endangered Species Act re-
quires that we designate or revise critical habitat based upon the best scientific data available, taking into consid-
eration the economic impact, impact on national security, and any other relevant impact of specifying any par-
ticular area as critical habitat.
We are seeking comments on the proposed designation of critical habitat for Cook’s desert parsley and large-
flowered woolly meadowfoam and the associated draft economic analysis.
PUBLIC PARTICIPATION: Informed and active public participation in the listing process is encouraged
through public comment and public hearing opportunities and is vital to the decision to be made by the Fish and
Wildlife Service.
WRITTEN COMMENTS and materials concerning this proposal must be received by close-of-business Febru-
ary 11, 2010. Comments may be submitted at the hearing, or by one of the following methods: 1) Federal
eRulemaking Portal: http://www.regulations.gov. Follow the instructions for submitting comments to Docket
No. FWS-R1-ES-2009-0046; 2) U.S. mail or hand-delivery: Public Comments Processing, Attn: FWS-R1-ES-
2009-0046; Division of Policy and Directives Management; U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service; 4401 N. Fairfax
Drive, Suite 222; Arlington, VA 22203.
on the west side.
Alternative 1 would
include a designated heli-
copter operations area, new
access from Redwood
Hwy., more vehicle parking,
pedestrian paths and a re-
serve area for hangars, avia-
tion-related businesses and
aviation compatible indus-
trial or commercial develop-
ment.
According to Lucas and
WHPacific’s Rainse Ander-
son, Alternative 2 would
have the highest capital
costs but the most potential
for revenue generation. It
also would have the highest
potential for runway cross-
ing hazards.
A “very cursory” envi-
ronmental screening showed
that there is the potential for
harm to unique plant species
in Alternative 2, Lucas said.
She said that biological sur-
veys would have to be con-
ducted prior to any develop-
ment at the airport, and that
the FAA requires environ-
mental processes to be fol-
lowed.
“If there’s an impact on
a resource, there will always
be mitigation,” Lucas said.
Many of the 25 audi-
ence members present for
the meeting expressed sup-
port for Alternative 2 and
for establishing a smoke-
jumper museum at the air-
port.
PAC members said they
supported the taxiway des-
ignation under Alternative
2, but wanted to see parts of
Alternative 1 incorporated
into the layout plan.
Anderson said he will
incorporate elements of both
alternatives into the plan
and bring it back to the PAC
during its next meeting,
which is tentatively sched-
uled for the third week of
April. He also will complete
and present the capital im-
provement plan at that meet-
ing.
